My first weekly new thing!
I have never been able to donate my blood. I have tried different times and for a variety of reasons, I am never allowed to... Until today. It was interesting to see all different kinds of people there and thinking in my head, "there is no way that man should be allowed to donate." I am a judger. Anyway, It was so exciting! I remember snorted while reading all of the sex/AIDS questions they ask on the form and the man in the both next to me started lecturing me about how important this is. So sorry!
I then went into a private booth with the Flobatomist and had some tests done. It was painful for my finger to get pricked but other then that, it was educational. I then went to the chair and my Blood Taking Specialist, Trisha got me cleaned up on my arm and told me to look away. I did not! I love watching needles go into the body. I love the visual connection with the pain. It's so interesting to me! Anyway, I watched her put the GINORMOUS needle in my skin and made her take pictures of my arm but she went above and beyond and took more pictures.
I almost passed out when we done so they made me sit for like a half hour, but I got fruit snacks, fritos, and apple juice. I was happy!
